Thank you for all replies.

I have some clues what the password may contain word-wise.

I have tried using the BTCRecover but I am not sure I am enough tech savvy to actually get it to work.

I have downloaded BTCRecover and I am trying to following this:
https://btcrecover.readthedocs.io/en/latest/INSTALL/

When I download Python I can't seem to find Python 3.8.5 with a MSI Installer. So I went with 3.9 and I made sure to tick the "Add Python to path". Then it asks you to insert a command, where can I insert this command 'pip3 install -r requirements.txt'?

Then it asks you to download the latest version of PyOpenCL for OpenCL 1.2 and Python 3. First I should insert the command of 'pip3 install numpy==1.9.3' in to Python by just copying it directly in to Python if I am not misunderstood?

I will then download the pyopencl‑2020.2+cl12‑cp38‑cp38‑win_amd64.whl file and navigate from cmd.exe to where I downloaded it and insert command 'pip3 install pyopencl‑2020.1+cl12‑cp38‑cp38‑win_amd64.whl'

and this for Blockchain:
https://btcrecover.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Usage_Examples/2020-05-08_Recovering_Blockchain_Wallet_Passwords/Example_Recovering_Blockchain_Wallet_Passwords/

I then test BTCRecover by using 'python run-all-tests.py -vv' command in Python to make sure it runs as supposed to?

Then there is also talk about PyCryptoDome and this example of Blockchain: https://btcrecover.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Usage_Examples/2020-05-08_Recovering_Blockchain_Wallet_Passwords/Example_Recovering_Blockchain_Wallet_Passwords/

In case you failed to recover with the use of btcrecover you can also try with hashcat. There are some useful rules that will help you with it. I can help you in this matter

sorry, did not see that you wrote here. for BTCRecover

for installing the python dependencies, try this for windows, i found the command you tried did not work for me:

python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

the make sure you are either in the directory of the BTCRecover, or type the full path to the requirements.txt in the command.

I think the file was encrypted with a password. Your wallet password and JSON file password aren't the same. You may try brute force but it's quite complicated to creak a password if you don't any clue. If wallet, wallet id, and registered email still under control you then there is hope, but too complex if you don't have the clue. So just try yourself by watching tutorials from YouTube (just find a trusted source, don't follow scammers). Anyway you can try what malevolent said.

Besides that, perhaps many scammers would PM you to recover the wallet. Just avoid any private discussion, ask them to discuss on this thread.

Have you got at least a rough idea what the password is likely to look like?

See if btcrecover works out for you: https://github.com/3rdIteration/btcrecover

Or if your own hardware is weak: https://btcrecover.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Usage_Examples/2020-10-06_Multi-GPU_with_vastai/Example_Multi-GPU_with_vastai/

2nd this, I would also add that if you are going down the BTCRecover road, don't bother trying hashcat/johntehripper for higher throughput as they don't crack many of the older blockchain.info wallets.

Is there actually GPU support for older blockchain wallets?

If you have no idea what the password is and no other means of recovering your account, then there is no hope.

Hi,

I have a Aes.json wallet from 2013 that I had saved and I am now trying to unlock it. I have forgot my password (or it won't work) as I've tried https://login.blockchain.com/wallet/import-wallet without any success since the password is wrong. I can also not login to Blockchain since you need a 12 word phrase or a mnemonic to recover which I don't remember writing down. So what I have is the wallet-id and the Aes.json wallet. Is it a lost cause?

What can I do?
